Among my neighbours is a young man who could best be described as a computer geek. Through him I have explored a whole new world of IT experiences, Virtual Reality among them. Last week I bought a Virtual Reality headset and software. Yesterday he installed and set up my VR device, allowing me to enter a new world of amazing possibilities.
With VR software I can travel anywhere and experience anything from sky diving to white water rafting on the Colorado River. From driving a F1 racing car to diving the Great Barrier Reef, and all without stepping outside my front door.
I shot this brief video of my neighbour interacting with a VR real life setting. My life has been transformed and this is only the first day. Adventure before dementia, that's me, just as described on the label.

The Viking Research VR-599. No backstory, just a cool starfighter.

Although I have to confess that the Bristol VR was never may favourite of the '70s Leyland group trilogy, a fair number have passed our way and given us the ability to earn a living. Several had failed aspects of their driveline, but EWS 739W passed through for something of a body make-over and a re-paint in 2010. Thankfully we didn't have to take too many panels off as that usually sees a big job break out on an ECW. This photo was taken a mile or so away from RBW whilst the bus was being road tested.

Op 29 maart 2018 werden er drie 1700'en van Dijksgracht naar Maastricht gebracht. Op de terugweg zouden er weer enkele geplukte 1700'en terug gaan vanuit Eindhoven maar door problemen op de heenweg kwam deze rit te vervallen. Op 30 maart 2018 werden er opnieuw 1700'en uit de Dijkgracht afgevoerd en dit keer ging de retourrit wel door. Zodoende kon ik na een forse goede vrijdag file, in een gelukkig maar flets schijnend zonnetje bij 's-Hertogenbosch dit transport vastleggen. Met op kop de 203-1 van Volkerrail passeren hier de van onderdelen ontdane 1776, 1773 en 1708 met drie DDM1 rijtuigen als remrijtuigen als trein 51962 de fotograaf. Het is overigens triest dat deze locs met een leeftijd van slechts 24 jaar oud al naar de sloop gaan, maar dat terzijde.

So I had two ideas on the go: dinosaur eye & VR headset and I thought 'hey, lets put those two together!'
